Maeve: The Rise Of The Gamma Chapter 17
Maeve POV “This is cute,” Ario said, showing me a floral gown. I frowned, shaking my head, and he sighed, running inside the closet. It has been a week since the complete fiasco, and I have been on bed rest. The only person I have seen after Ario is the doctor. He doesn’t allow me to do anything; he gives me food, bathes me, chooses clothes for me, and even cuddles me to sleep while rubbing my hair. I know he is doing it for the pup, but I have become so used to the routine that he stays with me all day. Sometimes I sleep off, sitting on his laps while he attends to some paperwork. He has been the ideal supportive mate. “What about this?” he asked, showing me a cute flowery shirt with a black sweat. “Really, it looks boring,” I said, my face blank. He gave me a long look, breathing out. He wants to take me out on a picnic, and he wants me to wear comfortable outdoor clothes, but I rejected all of them. He actually has good taste and a nice combination of clothes, but I just want to

Maeve POVWe lay down on the mat, our stomachs full, as we stared at the sky.“I am so full,” I groaned. He chuckled, his head near my neck. He was actually facing me, his hand on my stomach.“You wouldn’t stop eating,” he said, his hand moving to my baby hair.“It was so good. I had to finish it,” I said, gulping. He chuckled, pecking my cheeks, and his lips stayed on my cheeks for a few seconds before pulling back. Then he sat up.“I have a surprise for you,” he said, softly. I said up, looking at him.“Really? What?” I asked. He stood up, walked behind a bush, and brought a medium-sized teddy bear. The teddy was brown. He sat in front of me, giving me the bear.“Thank you,” I said, collecting it. The bear is cuddly.“Press the stomach,” he said. I smiled, pressing it, and my smile dropped immediately, water pulling up in my eyes as his voice flowed through.“I love you, Mae; please stay safe.” Father’s voice rings out from the teddy. He pressed it again.“Don’t forget all I have tau

Maeve POVI remove the blanket covering my body, putting my feet down.“What do you mean?” I asked. He sighed, coming to sit beside me.“The guards received a note today, and according to the note, the person is asking for your custody or he attacks the pack,” he said. I sighed, breathing out. Is it because of me they killed everyone in the pack? They wanted me. But why? Nothing is special about me; I was just the Alpha daughter, so why did they kill everyone?“Hey, hey,” he called, turning me around to face him.“You’re overthinking,” he said.“No, they killed the pack because of me, I killed them,” I said, my eyes watering.“Calm down, Eve; I didn’t tell you this to make you panic. I just wanted to know if there is something about you I should know,” he said.“Let me leave the pack; that way everyone can be safe,” I said, looking at him. He frowned, his face displeased.“You are not going anywhere, Eve; you stay here; whatever happens, we take care of it,” he said.“But the pack, I w

Maeve POV I breathe out heavily, lost in thoughts. The conversation was just replaying repeatedly in my head. I didn’t want to believe it, but I knew deep down it was all true. Father always taught me how to control my temper. He knew of the destruction I was going to cause if I ever got angry beyond control. He knew about everything, but why didn’t he tell me? He should have warned me of the dangers ahead. So does that mean I have a psycho moon goddess behind me and an enemy that wiped out my entire pack? I sighed again, running my hand through my hair. “Hey,” Ario’s voice said from behind me, but I didn’t turn to look at him. I was sitting on the balcony, enjoying the night breeze, in a small shirt and black pants. I am cold, but I am too lost in thought to notice. He came to me, wrapped a blanket around me, and then gave me a cup of tea. “Thank you,” I said, collecting it. He nodded his head, seated beside me, and it was very silent as I sipped on my hot tea quietly. “Are you t

Maeve POVIt’s been two weeks since I found out about Selene. These past few weeks have been very boring for me. I sleep, eat, and repeat. Ario has been very busy trying to train the warriors, and I am usually with Maya most times. She introduced me to her pup, Lana, and she is a bubbly little thing. I can’t wait to carry my pup in my hand. I see how Maya looks at her, and I want the same for myself. Talking about Ario, he has been busy but always followed me for doctor's appointments; the pup is growing healthy; I am healthy, and now I can’t even hide my pregnancy again. My stomach grew overnight, and it’s so noticeable now.I have been getting a lot of stares. People are curious about our relationship because all they know is that I am the gamma of their pack, and it’s unusual for the alpha and gamma to have any pups together or even a mate. I am not bothered, though; when Ario is ready, he will address it.“How far is it?” I asked Maya. This pup is really stressing on me; I feel tir

Maeve POVI looked at Ario as he came out of the bathroom in his towel. His hair was wet, his lips a dark pink, but a frown sat on his handsome face as he glared at me.“You look cute when you are angry,” I said, smiling widely. He growled at me as I entered the closet. A few seconds later, he came out wearing black joggers with the band of his boxers out. He sighed, coming to me and carrying the tray off my lips, then he left again. I chuckled, laying down. He is mad at me for acting recklessly today. He has been mad at me and growling at me since, but I find his anger cute because, what can I say, he is still doing what he will normally do. Bathe me and feed me; he is just being a baby. I thought, covering my body.The door opened, and he came inside, heading to the bed. He didn’t talk to me; he just laid down, ignoring me. I chuckled, moving close to him. I run my hand down his broad chest, my head on his arm.“Ario,” I called, my voice low, but he ignored me. I smiled, kissing his

Maeve POV“We are here,” Ario said, looking outside the car window. I looked outside, and everything was in ruins. The door opened, and Ario came down, helping me down. I took a deep breath as my feet touched the ground, and I didn’t get any familiar scents. My heart ached as I looked at the pack grounds. This used to be a bubbly place, with pups running around, parents taking a stroll or just going about their day, the beautiful houses—they are all gone. Now the air smells like death; the once-fine buildings have collapsed; some don’t have any roofs. I sighed, holding my tears. This is really just so sad.“Should I tell the warriors to excuse us?” Ario asked in the link, holding my hand.“No, let’s walk around,” I mind link, walking forward, and he followed me quietly. I know this land perfectly; I have lived here all my life, so even if everything is in ruins or if there are enormous stones in the areas, I know where everything was. The pack house, the arena, the supermarket, the bou

Ario POVI stood by the wall, looking at everyone as they had gloomy faces and most of them were crying with Maeve, who was whimpering. There are two things I noticed on getting here: 1 was how much they loved their alpha, they respect him, cherished him and how they missed him. Alpha Harold was a strong-willed man, he was a great alpha, and he definitely earned my respect, he was there alpha and he loved everyone, treated them right and put them above himself, he was fearless and he died as a warrior; he protected his pack, and that’s why he deserved all the love. Another thing I noticed is how they love each other. They are an actual family, strong together and vulnerable together. Eve never liked crying in front of anyone. She held her tears while she was with me and cried in the room alone. Sometimes she looked on the verge of crying, her eyes watering and her jaws locked but she never cries, but here she is crying openly. She didn’t hold back her tears, and she didn’t need to.

Maeve: The Rise Of The Gamma Epilogue
Maeve POVHow long has it been? About 30 years later? I lost count, honestly. These long years have been filled with a lot of adventure, but surely a lot of things have changed. Pa found a fae woman, and they fell in love. It was hard for Duncan and Brandon to see their father move on, but after a little speech, they accepted. The Fae woman Angela was pregnant two years after they got married; they also didn’t take it well, but I convinced them this was their new life; they are immortals now, and of course Pa is not going to get married for years without having a kid. Long story short, Pa has five beautiful children with Angela, and Duncan and Brandon are the sweetest elder brothers to them.Duncan and Leah are still together, and they are still having more children. Ten years after Brandon got over Mason, he found love again, and this time it was a woman. She was actually his friend for a long time; she was helping him move on and being a mother figure in the twins’ lives, and along

Maeve POV“Damn!” Arthur yelled, totally invested in the game. The game has passed an hour, and none of them is half way yet.“Otto, what did you do?” Arthur asked, not removing his eyes from the game.“Made it harder,” he said, sitting down calmly.“Your son is going to be a wicked king,” Arthur said, and I chuckled. The game is getting harder and more complicated. The clues are hard to find, and if they find them to crack, it is difficult. Plus, the demons that jumped at them out of nowhere almost killed Bryan. Otto made the demons attacking very strong, then the humans attacking used their powers against them, and they have none. The game is extremely hard. Kennet went back to the starting line without his flag; blood was all over him.“Out!” Arthur yelled. Kenneth growled. Well, he lost his flag, so he is out of the game. He walked over to us, shaking his head while breathing out.“Isn’t this too much?” He asked, taking his seat. A guard handed him a bottle of water.“No, it’s per

Maeve POV“Do you think we are babies?” Bryant asked, glaring at us. It was the next day, and we were with the pillars. We told them about the plan, and I don’t know if they are talking about it well.“You have no choice; who is going to be the leader?” Ario asked. They all looked at each other.“We know you all are not on good terms, fighting each other over the position,” I said.“Still, you have no right to tell us what to do,” Kate said, glaring at me. I know she is not a big fan of my mother and me. She especially doesn’t like her; I remember her telling me Kate never really spoke to her and frowned at everything she did. She was supposed to be the leader, but mother was more powerful than her.“I have every right to tell you, Kate. My mother was the leader; I am her daughter, more powerful than you can ever be,” I snapped at her. She rolled her eyes.“Of course you are powerful; after your mother gave you the title, you didn’t deserve them,” she spat. I smiled at her.“You know

Maeve POVThe thunder and lightning crashed as the rain fell heavily. It was like the rain could tell my mood and how sad and devastated I was. When the demon king told me I had to kill my father, I knew it was a debate. There was no way I would kill him; there was no way I would look at the man who loved me so much and stab him. The look of betrayal would have killed me, torn me to tiny shreds; it would hunt me day and night. The plan was to get everyone to safety. I wanted everyone to be happy. I didn’t want any deaths on my plate, except for Jane, because I was ready to kill her at any moment. But as I stared at their opened coffins, laying side by side, it was very heartbreaking for me. Father has always wanted her by his side, so it’s only fair I bury them together, even though she isn’t worth it.“It’s time to close up the grave,” Ario said, his arms around my shoulders.“Wait,” I said, looking at my father’s face one last time. Of course, the rain is not touching them. They

Maeve POV“Yes, it was all an illusion. Attacking the villages, stealing crops, and attacking the military zone was all an illusion Otto created,” I said. And I could tell they were all catching up now. “What did you tell me the day you got married to chaos?” he asked.“First, I didn’t get married to him. It was me getting married, but it wasn’t me; it was a woman he was in love with. We both did it for our father, but we didn’t actually get married. That night I told you I simply loved you,” I said, smiling cheekily. He looked at me, shocked.“I thought you told me something very important,” he said.“It was important,” I said, offended.“So why couldn’t I remember?” I asked.“Because I wanted you to be curious. You sought answers and led me to Selene,” I said.“What?” he asked.“I knew Selene was alive; that was not her I killed. It was way too easy the way she died, but I didn’t know how to track her. But I knew she was watching you, so I made you search for answers, and I tracked
Maeve: The Rise Of The Gamma Chapter 82
Maeve POVI stood, looking at her dead body. She was truly dead, and I don’t know how I feel. Happy she is gone or sad because she was still the woman who gave birth to me. I looked at George.“How do you feel?” I asked, my voice hoarse. He blinked. We were the only ones in the room.“Lost,” he said, looking at her. She slit her own throat. She is a coward. I sighed.“I’m sorry you lived a lonely life because of her decisions,” I said. He looked at me.“Why are you apologizing? It wasn’t any of your fault she chose to abandon me,” he said. Who would have thought we were truly related? I never thought about it once, but I saw him as my little brother. When I met him, he was so young, lost, and innocent. I grew a soft spot for him as he stared at me innocently with his doe eyes. He was cute.“I wish you met your father; he would have loved you,” I said, chuckling. Father has a spot for people like George who are naughty, playful, and powerful; they would have gone along so well.“He see
Maeve: The Rise Of The Gamma Chapter 81
Ario POVI came outside of our room, heading to the living room. Everyone was here except Jane.“How is she?” Pa asked.“She keeps murmuring father in her sleep,” I said, collapsing on the couch.“She really loves her father,” he said, sitting beside me. I sighed.“I don’t blame her. All her life was a mess. Harold was the only one who cared for her and was there like a father, but he was not her true father. But Aelle is her father; she shares his blood, and he loves her. She must have planned something for this war; Aelle dying was not the plan,” I said. Everyone went quiet.“But why did Aelle take that sword? Jane obviously wronged him but still died for her,” Brandon said. I kept quiet, processing it.“He couldn’t stand watching his daughter kill her mother, the woman he loves,” I said.“It’s too sad,” Odin said, and I agreed with him. We all remained quiet in our thoughts. A lot happened today. After Aelle died, the remaining warriors retreated, running away. We didn’t lose many

Third Person POVWar covered the palace of Cassia kingdom as men fought against each other, slaying each other's head. The war just started and right now king Aelle was at the losing side as the warriors of cassia charged at them fiercely. It was like they just finished taking a lot of sugar, as their strength and energy can’t be compared to none. They were slaying king Aelle men like today’s bread.“Do not retreat!” king Aelle yelled from his horse. Shouting at the men. He was surprised. He thought they would be resting by now, too weak to fight, but it looks like they have not even trained today. His men were dying.“Archers, get ready,” he said, raising his hand. The archers point their bow, raised high in the sky.“Shoot!” he yelled. They all shot, and the arrows flew but they stopped mid air as a man appeared. He smiled at Aelle, his hand raised. He was holding the arrows.“Hello Aelle, my name is George and surprisingly you are my stepfather,” he said, smiling at him. Aelle look

Ario POVWe stood in front of the palace. Although we broke it down, we didn’t reconstruct it; we left it like that. But we didn’t break the palace to pieces; someone can still live inside.“Let’s go in,” I said, climbing a rock. Will Selene really stay here? Well, this is the only place in the kingdom she could possibly hide.“Take the left,” I said to the guards, and they bowed. Now it was just Brandon and me. We walked around, trying to get a scent or anything.“Do you really think she will be here?” he asked.“That is what Mabel said; she should be here or she left after finding out, we know,” I said. He sighed.“We really can’t get rid of her,” he said. Well, we all thought she was dead, so I understand him.“But what happens if she is here?” he asked.“Capture her before she causes more trouble,” I said. He scoffed.“Selene is not that easy to capture; she is powerful,” he said. I rolled my eyes.“She is powerful, but I am more powerful, and I have you,” I said. He chuckled.“I
